  1. Soil preparation: For best results, it’s essential to prepare the soil properly before planting Miscanthus rhizomes. Make sure the soil is well drained and free of weeds. The soil should be loosened to a depth of 15-20cm to help the rhizomes take root. <\/li>\n
  2. Planting: Plant the rhizomes to a depth of around 5 cm, spaced 75 cm to 1 metre apart. The ideal time to plant Miscanthus rhizomes is between April and May, when soil temperatures are above 10\u00b0C. <\/li>\n
